Ghosts are always an interesting subject, and real ghost stories even more so! I'm sure the author, Echo Bodine, is attempting to write sincerely, but her story telling sucks. She shares her psychic beginnings very well, but fails to bring detail to any other of her anecdotes. Bodine admits her abilities focus on another sensibility than we, the readers (or non-ghost sensers) are exposed to, yet rarely delves into detail when it comes to the entities she comes in contact with. She is also very r...more

Echo Bodine kicks off the book by drawing a line between ghosts and spirits in the Preface and goes into greater detail in her first chapter. The last several chapters cover various topics dealing with ghosts. For me, the real meat of the book was the ghostly anecdotes.

Each story was like paranormal popcorn, I couldn’t stop reading them. They were each around 2 to 5 pages long and end with a “ghost fact.” It was a perfect read for the holiday season. I recommend this book for anyone interested i...more

I think this book was a really good book if you like ghosts books. I understood this book completely. I thought it was a good book because I like the way the author organized the book, the way she worded things and describing everything about the ghosts. I believe in ghosts so of course I thought this book was good. I have not found a ghost book that i haven't liked. There was only one part of this book that I didn't like and that was in some of the stories it seemed like she made it up when it...more

I love this book. It's easy to read and has a variety of personal accounts Echo has experienced. I love how she gives tips throughout the book to help others who may be experiencing similar situations. I learned a lot from this book and will look for more of her books to read.

This book was not well written. The way the auther talks it was like her first time every time, but she said she has been to houndreds along with many TV showes about ghost hunting. I would not recommend reading this book.

Im in the middle of the book and so far its good. it can scare you at night but its not that of a thriller. Its about a medium who gets callos to go to houses to get rid of ghost in the home. i wont give you to much cause its up to you to read it.

I myself have had paranormal experiences, but seriously ...if someone has experienced all the things this woman says she has seen...would there still be any room for skepticism. I don't buy it...and I actually DO believe in hauntings!

I'm a little too much of a skeptic to buy into everything Bodine says, but the book was easy to read, and I did pick up some interesting information for a novel I'm currently working on.
Donna DeBoer
Loved this book. Chock full of ghostly experiences & investigations by a truely talented psychic. A psychic who also has the same beliefs I have. This one is staying on my book shelf.

My only complaint was it was too short! I started it & finished in a matter of hours. But I love Echo's approach to the paranormal (she described the feeling in one haunted location as "totally yucky"). And her down to earth, plain speaking, take no BS attitude makes her my kind of psychic.

Quick read! Read in one day! Interesting stories about ghosts and spirits!

I LOVED this book!
Sabrina Morgan
This book is full of two page stories. So if your not looking for a little build up and maybe some info to your stories, then go ahead and read this. If you are like me then this book will just be annoying.
